Re: Proposed Welcome Portlet

[Dave Colasurdo]

I like the idea of a different initial (post logon) page for the 
console.  However, the information from the Geronimo welcome page 
seems inappropriate for the console (i.e. congratulations on the 
install, you may have gotten the setup wrong)..  Seems the console 
welcome page should describe characteristics of the console (navigation, 
features, plans, doc, etc.)..

All,

I'd like to add a Welcome Portlet that would be presented to a user 
when they login to the Geronimo Web Console.  This would be in place 
of the Java Server information that is currently presented.  Ideally 
we would want this to include helpful information for the user, first 
steps, etc.... For now I'm just including the similar information to 
what is included in the regular Welcome page (of which I also have an 
updated version).  The first image at this link includes my current 
version of the page (sans the powered by icon in the lower right which 
I do not yet have).  What do you think?
